In this regard, we uphold the following principles, “observance of precepts, reliance on doctrines, introspection as key, pure land is home”. We promulgate orthodox Buddhism and educate people how to practice it. When one puts the Buddhist dharma into their daily live, they can attain a pure mind and body, and lead a life which is beneficial to other sentient beings and can make wholesome connections. In the long run, practitioners can transcend worldly existence and incessant rebirths, become a sage and stay in the ultimate enlightenment.
